Alderman
frisk.
A
B
All
right,
thank
you.
Thank
you.
City
clerk.
Welcome
everybody
to
the
tuesday
september
29th
2020,
evanston
city
council
meeting.
We
usually
have
these
as
people
know
on
monday,
but
because
of
the
jewish
holiday
yom
kippur.
B
The
meeting
was
moved
to
today,
so
welcome.
Welcome
to
our
last
meeting.
In
the
month
of
september,
we
have
all
of
our
aldermen.
We
expect
aldermen
fleming
to
be
joining
us
shortly.
Alderman
wilson,
could
you
move
a
motion
that
we
have
this
meeting
virtually.
C
Yes,
I
move
that
we
suspend
the
rules
to
allow
us
to
conduct
the
meeting
electronically
using
the
zoom
software
and,
in
conformance
with
the
I'm
sorry,
the
governor's
prior
directives
relating
to
the
covet
19
pandemic.
B
A
Yes,
yes,
alderman
ravel,
alderman,
rainey,
hi,
alderman,
fisk,.
E
F
B
All
right,
thank
thank
you,
so
on
on
a
eight
to
zero.
The
motion
to
hold
this
meeting
virtually
due
to
the
pandemic
and
allowance
by
the
governor's
order,
hereby
passes.
We're
now
going
to
move
to
the
first
item
on
the
agenda,
which
is
mayor's
public
announcements
and
proclamations.
I
don't
have
any
proclamations
this
week.
I
have
three
announcements.
The
first
announcement
is,
I
just
wanted
to
give
the
community
an
update
on
our
search
for
a
new
city
manager.
The
executive
search
firm
did
a
nationwide
search.
B
There
were,
I
think,
70
or
slightly
over
70
applicants
who
expressed
an
interest
in
the
job.
Last
week
in
executive
session,
the
city
council
reviewed
the
applicants
with
the
executive
search
firm
and
selected
four
applicants
that
are
semi-finalists,
that
we
will
be
interviewing
this
friday
october,
2nd
and
that
will
occur
in
executive
session
all
day
on
friday.
B
If
you
do
have
a
public
comment,
that
meeting
will
be
starting
at
8
45
a.m
on
friday,
and
you
can
find
that
on
the
sit
on
the
city's
website,
once
we
finish
with
the
semifinalists
and
down
select
from
there,
it
will
then
become
a
public
process
and
the
public
will
have
the
opportunity
via
zoom
to
meet
with
with
different
candidates.
B
So
once
we
get
through
that,
we'll
we'll
present
the
next
the
next
step
in
this
process,
but
there
will
be
an
opportunity
for
the
public
to
meet
the
finalists.
B
Secondly,
I
just
want
to
give
the
community
a
real,
quick
update
on
the
pandemic
covet
19
and
stress
that
we
all
need
to
continue
to
be
vigilant,
particularly
as
we
get
to
colder
weather
and
we
find
ourselves
spending
more
time
indoors
than
outdoors,
and
we
know
that
being
outdoors
is
a
lot
safer
for
all
of
us
and
for
our
community.
We
continue
to
do
really
well
here
in
evanston
we're
reaping
the
benefit
of
all
of
the
hard
work
of
all
of
our
residents
and
all
the
organizations
here
in
town.
B
Today
we
have
three
new
cases.
Yesterday
we
had
10
our
overall
total
is
over
1100
cases
that
we've
had
here
in
evanston
the
positivity
rate,
which
I
know
a
lot
of
people
are
paying
attention
to
continues
to
be
be
good
here.
It
can
honestly
change
pretty
dramatically
if
a
high
number
of
cases
came
in,
but
we've
been
around
one
and
a
half
percent
we're
still
around
that
number
we're
at
1.67
percent.
As
of
today,
that's
our
seven
day,
positivity
rate
the
7
day.
B
Moving
average
for
the
moving
average
in
terms
of
the
numbers
of
cases
that
we
have
right
now
is
at
5.71,
so
slightly
under
six
cases
a
day
is
our
average.
Over
the
last
seven
days,
the
moving
average
for
the
state
of
illinois
can
and
on
their
seven
day,
moving
average
is
3.6
percent.
B
B
We
are
part
of
the
suburban
cook
county
region,
the
positivity
rate
there
is
5.1.
So
remember,
even
though
our
community
positivity
rate
is
1.67,
we're
part
of
a
larger
region
and
that
larger
region
is
at
5.1
percent.
The
city
of
chicago
is
region
11,
they
are
their
own
region
and
their
positivity
rate
is
actually
a
little
less
than
the
cook
county,
positivity
rate,
which
is
at
4.4
percent.
B
Lastly,
a
lot
of
people
are
asking
about
the
influx
of
northwestern
students
in
in
the
community
northwestern
decided
to
keep
freshmen
and
sophomores
at
home.
They're.
All
doing
e-learning,
juniors
and
seniors
are
here
and
northwestern
has
an
elaborate
testing
program
and
contact
tracing
program
that
they
have
created
in
very
close
collaboration
with
the
city
of
evanston's
health
and
human
services
department
led
by
ike
ogbo,
the
10-day
moving
average
for
the
positivity
rate
for
students
is
0.35
percent.
B
I'll
say
that
again
it's
0.35
percent.
I
know
that
aldermen
and-
and
others
are
getting.
You
know,
questions
about
hey.
I
still
see
people
not
wearing
masks,
or
I
see
people
gathering
to
gathering
together.
I
hear
that
not
only
about
some
students
right,
but
I
hear
that
about
you
know
some
other
adults
here
in
our
community.
I
want
to
stress
that
we
are
going
to
continue
to
manage
this
pandemic
closely.
We
are
going
to
make
decisions
that
are
based
on
facts
and
data
and
science
and
public
health
experts.
B
We
do
know
that
masks,
make
a
difference
and
and
can
save
lives
and
and
reduce
the
transmission
of
this
disease.
It's
going
to
be
more
important
than
ever
as
we
get
into
the
cold
season
that
everyone
is
wearing
a
mask
and
so
tonight-
and
this
is
my
final
final
announcement-
I'm
really
really
pleased
that,
under
our
whole
of
community
response
and
recovery
effort
here,
young
people
in
this
community
have
put
together
a
behind
the
mask
challenge.
This
wasn't
developed
by
a
bunch
of
adults
in
the
community
or
city
staff.
B
This
was
developed
by
young
folks
here
in
our
community,
and
so
I
just
want
to
take
a
couple
minutes
to
show
a
behind
the
mask
video,
so
the
community
can
understand
what
this
challenge
is
and
it
is
for
the
month
of
october,
there
will
be
great
prizes,
but
mostly
bragging
rights.
If
you
are
selected
as
one
of
the
winners
in
this
in
this
competition,
so
I'm
gonna
ask
now
if
luke
or
kimberly
will
turn
it
over.
B
We
are
gonna
hear
from
meena
sharma
one
of
our
our
young
adults
in
this
community.
B
There
is
a
video
with
this
that
we're
anticipating
but
luke
or
kimberly.
If
there's
a
problem,
please
let
me.
B
H
G
Hi
everyone,
my
name,
is
mina
sharma
and
I
am
a
student
at
eths
as
well
as
a
student
advocate
for
cradle
to
career,
and
I
just
wanted
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
what
exactly
this
challenge
is.
So
this
is
really
purpose
so
that
students
all
around
the
community
of
all
different
ages
are
able
to
relate
important
information
as
it
relates
to
coven
19,
all
the
while
staying
behind
the
mask.
G
So
these
submissions
can
be
made
in
a
variety
of
ways,
including
general
psas,
art
installations,
tick,
tock,
spoken,
word,
creative,
writing,
poetry,
songs,
anything
that
you
can
think
of.
So
entries
will
begin
to
be
accepted
on
september
28th
and
the
deadline
for
these
entries
is
october
26th
and
you
can
send
those
to
evanstonc2c
gmail.com,
and
the
great
thing
about
this
is
that
you
will
get
a
gift
card
and
gift
basket
if
you
are
chosen
as
a
winner
and
then
finally,
I
am
mina
sharma
and
I
am
behind
the
mask.
I
B
B
B
It
will
be
in
our
thursday
update
about
this
chat
about
this
challenge
and
again
it
is
being
led
by
our
young
people
in
this
community,
but
it
is
not
just
for
young
people,
it's
for
everybody
in
our
community
and
we
want
to
get
out-
and
we
want
to
stress
if
there's
one
email,
that
I
get
probably
more
than
any
other
it's
about.
You
know
seeing
someone
or
a
group
of
folks
that
weren't
wearing
masks.
B
So
let's
take
it
upon
each
of
us
to
make
sure
we
do
something
that
we
know
from
public
health
authorities
makes
a
difference.
Wear
a
mask.
Alderman
rainey.
M
Yes,
I
just
want
to
clarify
it
wasn't
real
obvious,
but
is
this?
Is
a
project
of
advocates
in
action
through
cradle
to
career?
Is
that
what
just.
B
So
it
it
ended
up,
we
threw
out
the
idea
we
talked
about
it
at
unified
command
at
the
eoc
I
reached
out
to
some
of
the
folks
on
the
mayor's
task
force,
kimberly
ross
holmes
being
one
and
kimberly
ran
with
it,
and
so
yes,
our
our
advocates
for
action,
are
the
ones
that
you
saw
in
that
video
and
have
been
a
big
part
of
putting
this
campaign
together
and
again.
The
whole
campaign
is
their
idea.
B
Perfect
thanks
thank
thank
you,
alderman
rainey.
Thank
you.
Everybody
again,
more
information
will
come
out
this
week
from
the
city
on
that,
and
I
ask
everybody
to
please
go
out
there
and
promote
it,
and
you
can
upload
your
video
of
you
wearing
your
mask
and
being
behind
the
mask
all
right.
Next
we're
going
to
turn
to
any
announcements
from
our
city
manager.
N
B
All
right,
thank
you
erica
how
about
any
communications
from
our
city
clerk.
A
I
have
just
you
know
the
the
kind
of
ongoing
communication
about
elections.
So
just
as
we
all
know,
early
voting
begins
october
19th
here
at
the
evanston
civic
center.
There
will
also
be
a
drop
box
that
is
available
at
the
evanston
civic
center
during
early
voting.
So
you
can
drop
off
your
mail-in
ballot
there
I
do
want,
and
so
you
know,
that's
that
you
can
go
to
the
evanston
city,
clerk's
page
election
information
sub-tab
to
find
out
all
the
information
about
the
upcoming
national
presidential
elections.
A
A
A
So
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
that's
clear
what
the
clerk's
office
you
know,
we'll.
P
A
On
objections
likely
in
the
in
the
in
the
coming
weeks
to
make
sure
folks
are
clear
about
the
objection
process,
but
we
also
you
know,
as
we
have
focused
on
previously
going
to
make.
A
The
clerk's
page
webpage
for
as
well
as
our
facebook
page
for
information
on
filing.
We
have
two
sessions
that
were
recorded.
You
know
one
a
shorter
10-minute
session
that
goes
through
the
filing
guidelines,
as
well
as
an
hour-long
session
with
two
election
attorneys
and
a
staff
attorney
from.
B
All
right
great,
thank
you
clerk,
reed.
Next
we're
going
to
move
to
public
comment.
We
set
aside
per
our
rules,
45
minutes
for
public
comment.
We
take
the
total
number
of
people
that
have
signed
up
for
public
comment,
divided
by
the
45
minutes
and
arrive
at
the
allotted
time
for
each
speaker
tonight.
We
do
have
a
lot
of
speakers.
We
have
30
that
have
signed
up,
and
so
I
am
going
to
set
aside
a
minute
30
for
each
speaker.
So
if
you're
going
to
speak
tonight,
you
have
one
minute
and
30
seconds.
B
I
will
keep
track
of
the
the
minute.
30
you'll
hear
a
sound,
go
off,
that'll
just
be
the
timer.
When
that
does
your
time
will
be
up
and
then
we'll
move
to
to
the
next
speaker
the
first,
the
first
three
speakers
tonight,
the
first
one
is
going
to
be
joel,
shapiro,
renee,
payton
and
then
mike
fasilco.
B
So
mr
shapiro
welcome.
Q
Mayor
this
is
dan
shapiro.
Q
Mr
mayor
and
city
council,
thank
you
very
much
for
allowing
me
to
speak
to
you.
Many
of
you
have
heard
me
and
see
me
before
in
reference
to
the
matter
p4,
which
is
on
your
agenda,
the
map
amendment
for
orington
avenue.
I
I
do
appreciate
your
time
in
light
of
the
fact
that
we
all
are
limited
on
our
comments.
I'd
like
to
address
this
a
couple
of
things.
A
recent
note,
recent
information
that
came
to
the
city.
Q
Q
What
what
is
just
disappointing
for
me
to
see
is
that
that
particular
zoning
standard
that
has
come
down
from
our
state
supreme
court
has
now
been
distorted
by
some
folks
who
oppose
this,
to
suggest
discrimination,
exclusionary
housing,
etc,
and
that's
shameful,
that's
a
shameful
distortion
of
the
law,
and
that
is
absolutely
no.
No,
no,
no
consideration
with
respect
to
the
zoning
standards
which
I
articulated
to
the
pnd
last
week.
Q
I
believe
the
map
amendment
satisfies
all
the
standards
that
that
are
critical
and,
and
that
are
in
the
evanston
zoning
ordinance,
as
well
as
the
state
law.
Q
The
other
thing
is
to
the
extent
there
are
objectors
to
this.
They
have
not
addressed
any
of
the
standards.
They
have
not
said
that
they
disagree
with
any
of
the
standards
or
provided
any
testimony
whatsoever.
Q
One
can
only
assume
that,
therefore
they
have
no
evidence
or
testimony
which
would
rebut
any
of
the
standards
of
which
we
address
for
the
map
amendment.
So
we
encourage
you
to
please
consider
this
map
amount
it's
important
for
the
community,
it's
important
for
the
larger
community
of
the
city
of
evanston.
It
does
satisfy
the
standard
and
it
does
allow
for
this
block
to
really
have
the
type
of
zoning
that
I
believe
is
appropriate
in
what
was
originally
intended.
So
I
thank
you
for
your
time.
B
Thank
you,
mr
shapiro,
all
right,
our
next,
our
next
speaker.
It
speaks
speaker
that
was
my
massachusetts
accent.
Speaker
is
renee
payton
and
then
mike
vasilko
and
then
bobby.
Hercules
welcome
renee,.
H
B
Okay,
then
we'll
we'll
hold
on
her
and
come
back
how
about
mike
fasilco
and
then
bob
hercules,
and
then
it
looks
like
I
might
hold
for
one.
Second,
it
looks
like
I've
got
a
total
actually
of
less
than
30
speakers.
Some
were
double
counted
for
some
reason
on
on
there,
so
I'm
gonna
set
it
right
now
without
doing
the
quick
calculation
at
a
minute
45.
So
you
get
15
extra
seconds
each
speaker,
okay,
mike
welcome.
R
Fantastic,
thank
you,
my
facilico
2728
release.
R
I
guess
I
I'd
like
to
know
regarding
the
appointments
for
the
emergency
response
subcommittee.
If
there
was
consideration
given
to
the
apparent
opinion
of
some
of
the
members
that
were
being
recommended.
In
other
words,
is
this
a
diverse
group
of
people
or
people
with
a
diverse
opinion
range.
You
know,
is
everybody
already
in
favor
of
defunding
the
police,
for
instance,
or
are
there
other
opinions
that
are
being
represented
in
that
group?
I
think
it's
important
that
you
look
at
that
carefully
before
you
just
accept
that
group
of
nominees.
R
The
second
thing
I'd
like
to
know
is,
since
we're
approaching
the
budget
season
is
whether
or
not
our
staff
has
considered
what
appears
to
be
the
soon
opening
of
the
greenhouse,
which
is
looks
like
a
retail
cannabis
store
in
skokie
on
old
orchard
road,
just
across
from
the
shopping
center.
R
For
a
lot
of
reviews
about
that
looks
like
a
big
facility,
I
think
it's
gonna
eat
away
at
any
revenue
that
you're
counting
on
for
tax
revenue.
So
I'd
like
to
know
if
staff
is
is
aware
of
it
and
has
anticipated
that
going
into
our
budget
season,
I'd
like
the
council
to
vote
against
the
amusement
tax
a11,
that's
something
that
I
I
think
those
inv
there's
some
in
evanston
who
can
afford
to
pay
the
tax,
I'm
sure
there's
many
in
evanston.
R
I
think
that
look
forward
to
a
little
amusement
at
home
through
their
online
streaming
or
or
tv,
and
it
would
be
a
shame
to
tax
them
on
top
of
everything
else
that's
going
on.
R
B
Thank
you
mike
next
up,
we've
got
bob
hercules,
and
just
so,
I'm
being
straight
straight
up
with
everybody,
I
did
the
quick
calculation
with
the
23
speakers,
so
each
speaker
now
can
have
a
minute
55.
B
All
right,
so
we
got
mr
hercules,
then
doreen
ready
price.
I
believe
then
alyssa
kaplan.
J
Yes,
thank
you,
man,
I'm
going
to
pass
on
this,
but
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
my
wife,
julie,
johnson,.
B
S
E
Hi,
so
thanks
hello,
everyone.
I
just
want
to
say
that
you
know
equity
and
policing
and
housing
and
health
care,
and
all
these
areas
of
our
life
is
finally
getting
attention.
I'm
glad
of
that
I
want
to
see
big
changes
in
evanston.
E
E
We
love
it
here,
but
now
we
have
been,
and
everyone
here
has
been
a
family,
but
now
we've
been
getting
calls
and
postcards
for
the
last
year
from
people
wanting
to
buy
our
house,
and
I
couldn't
understand
it,
and
then
it
dawned
on
me
that
our
zoning,
which
I've
never
even
looked
at,
had
something
to
do
with
this,
and
what
started
to
become
clear
is
that
evan
investors
are
looking
for
houses
to
buy.
E
They
want
houses
that
can
be
subdivided
into
multiple
units
they
want
to
pack.
These
houses,
with
as
many
students
as
possible,
they
can't
make
as
good
of
a
return
on
their
investment.
If
they
just
have
three
students
in
a
house,
they
want
to
have
six
or
nine
or
whatever
and
the
rents
are
sky
high.
The
parents
are
willing
to
pay
very
high
rents
for
their
for
their
children.
E
They're,
not
children,
to
live
so
close
to
university,
and
the
thing
is
that
evidence
of
residents
don't
rent
those
apartments,
they're,
very
expensive,
and
and
even
when
these
student
houses
sell,
the
prices
are
also
really
really
high,
because
the
rental
income
is
so
high,
so
the
buyers,
if
there
are
sales
of
these
student
houses,
are
also
investors
and
evanston
residents,
start
to
sell
out
and
abandon
those
homes
or
the
blocks
anyway,
and
I,
you
probably
know
this
story,
but
it's
something
that's
been
dawning
on
us.
E
I
feel
really
sad
to
see
this
as
a
possibility
for
this
block
for
the
place
I've
lived.
I
really,
I
hope
to
live
my
life,
the
rest
of
my
life
here.
So
I
just
please
encourage
you
to
don't
let
student
housing,
multiple
unit
student
housing,
destroy
this
healthy
student
block.
It
just
it
would
distort
the
housing
market
and
really
price
families
out
if
student
housing
takes
over.
Thank.
B
You
say
thank
you,
thank
you,
mr
mrs
blenson.
Thank
you,
mrs
johnson
and
mr
hercules.
Next
up
we've
got
doreen
price,
then
alisa
kaplan,
then
max
ross.
B
I
see
him
okay,
how
about
alisa
kaplan.
U
I
have
a
prepared
statement.
My
name
is
max
ross
and
I've
lived
on
the
1900
block
of
orrington
for
12
years.
I
want
to
address
three
points
developers
have
been
making
here
and
make
no
mistake.
It's
only
developers
and
absentee
landlords
who
oppose
this
rezoning,
the
people
who
actually
live
here,
the
ones
who
care
about
this
neighborhood
and
are
losing
sleep
over
the
possibility
of
losing
their
homes,
we're
the
ones
that
support
it.
U
First,
I
want
to
address
the
absolutely
breathtaking
cynicism
of
developers
using
the
very
real
need
for
racial
equity
and
affordable
housing.
To
argue
against
this
zoning
change.
Please
don't
buy
this.
This
has
nothing
to
do
with
racial
equity
and
it
is
literally
the
opposite
of
affordable
housing.
This
is
about
pushing
evanston
residents
out
of
their
homes,
so
out
of
town
developers
can
triple
the
number
of
wealthy
students
they
put
in
the
house
at
a
thousand
dollars.
A
room
to
talk
about
racial
equity
and
affordable
housing.
Here
is
really
just
absurd.
U
U
U
U
Nuisance
ordinances
don't
solve
this
problem
and
this
kind
of
housing
deters
families.
It
takes
housing
away
from
evanston
families.
And
finally,
the
developer
says
that
we
hate
students.
Then
he
says
that
we
rent
to
them
in
our
homes.
We've
never
had
a
single
problem
with
an
owner-occupied
house
with
a
couple
of
students.
U
You
know
the
difference
should
really
be
obvious
between
a
family,
renting
to
a
couple
of
students
to
make
ends
meet
and
a
developer,
making
a
super-sized
complex
of
unsupervised.
Students
who
want
to
party
so
please
put
the
interests
of
evanston
residents
over
the
wallets
of
out-of-town
developers.
Please
support
this
change
and
please
save
my
home.
B
V
B
Boss,
thank
you.
Elisa
next
up
we've
got
darion
halligan,
then
terry
warman,
then
peter
mitchell.
W
Hi,
sorry
about
that,
thanks
mayor
haggerty
city,
council,
presidents
of
evanston,
my
name
is
darian
halligan.
I
live
in
the
seventh
ward
and
I
wanted
to
give
you
guys
a
look
at
kind
of
a
poster
child
for
the
accessible
housing
ordinance
that
you
have
there.
I'm
a
I'm
a
new
resident
to
evanston,
I'm
currently
a
family
of
six.
I
have
a
wife.
I
have
two
small
kids,
one,
that's
four
and
a
half
one.
That
is
one
and
a
half,
and
I
have
a
mother-in-law.
W
I
have
maybe
another
child
on
the
way,
and
I
have
my
mom
who
would
like
to
come
and
live
with
us
as
well
to
have
the
ability
to
have
an
accessible
dwelling
unit
in
my
household
as
an
extension
would
be
life-changing
for
us.
It
would
give
me
the
ability
to
do
the
right
thing
and
appropriately
care
for
my
family,
my
mother-in-law,
my
mother,
through
their
end
of
days,
and
that
is
what
I
fully
intend
to
do
at
the
city
of
evanston.
W
So
with
that,
I
hope
that
you
will
say
yes
to
that
ordinance.
One
other
thing
on
the
orienting
thing
you
know.
I
walked
down
that
block
of
warrington
and
I
I
read
the
summary
from
the
planning
and
development
committee.
If
you
guys
are
going
to
deny
their
request
to
go
to
r1.
W
I
hope
that
you
will
come
back
with
a
way
to
help
these
residences
and
prevent
developers
coming
in
to
just
change
their
neighborhood
and
do
high
rental
places
for
the
students
of
northwestern.
That's
all
they're,
trying
to
do
so
again,
if
you're
going
to
deny
it
at
least
come
up
with
another
solution
to
help
them
for
what
they
really
want
to
try
to
accomplish,
and
that's
that's
my
statement.
Thank
you
guys.
So
much
for
listening
have
a
great
day.
B
X
Thank
you
and
I
am
behind
the
mask
as
well
good
evening,
mayor
hagerty
and
members
of
the
city
council.
My
name
is
terry
warman,
I'm
associate
state
director
with
aarp
illinois
and
our
issue
expert
for
livable
communities,
including
accessory
dwelling
units.
X
We
know
that
by
2030
one
in
five
americans
will
be
50
and
older
and
about
80
percent
of
those
individuals
want
to
remain
in
their
own
communities
and
their
homes
as
they
age.
In
addition,
we
found
that
seven
in
10
would
consider
building
an
accessory
dwelling
unit
for
a
loved
one
who
needs
care,
and
I
think
mr
halligan
made
that
point
really
well
so
aar
comm
aarp
commends
the
city
of
evanston
for
your
systematic
expansion
of
the
ability
of
its
residents
to
consider
an
accessory
dwelling
unit.
X
As
a
viable
housing
option
over
the
last
two
years
with
each
new
addition
to
your
zoning
ordinance,
the
city
of
evanston
has
recognized
two
ways:
new
ways
to
respond
to
the
growing
need
for
affordable
and
varied
types
of
housing
desired
by
its
residents.
The
new
ordinance
expands
those
opportunities
for
evanston's
50-plus
residents
as
well
and
affords
them
the
opportunity
to
continue
to
serve
as
anchors
in
their
communities.
X
I
also
want
to.
I
am
also
excited
that
the
city
of
evanston,
in
partnership
with
the
evanston
development
cooperative,
was
selected
to
receive
a
2020
aarp
community
challenge
grant,
and
I
understand
this
grant
is
going
to
enable
you
to
produce
a
public
guide
on
accessory
dwelling
units
and
host
a
series
of
informational,
virtual
workshops
on
adus
for
evanston
resident
residents.
You
know
it's
one
thing
to
pass
an
ordinance,
it's
another
for
your
residents
to
understand
how
they
themselves
can
take
advantage
of
this
new
opportunity.
X
B
Y
Thank
you.
Thank
you
all
for
doing
all
that
you
do
for
evanston,
my
wife
and
I
laurel
tyler
live
at
1942
orrington,
and
we
are
strongly
supporting
the
fact
that
we
get
rezoned
as
single
family.
The
real
issue
here
is:
we
want
to
stop
future
home.
Convert
conversions
that
are
not
owner,
occupied.
Y
You've,
probably
read
all
of
the
details
about
it.
At
least
I
hope
you
have,
but
we
now
have
three
houses
on
our
block
that
have
anywhere
between
six
and
ten
hard
to
even
know
students
for
us.
This
is
about
putting
a
stake
in
the
ground
to
take
back
the
neighborhood.
It
really
is
a
simple
decision
and
we
hope
you
see
it
as
well.
This
is
about
emotion.
Y
This
is
about
community,
this
is
about
quality
of
life
and
it
should
not
be
about
all
of
the
issues
of
conforming
not
conforming
what
size.
All
of
the
things
that
we
can
get
bogged
down
in
and
and
the
reason
I
feel
so
strongly
is.
I've
got
first
hand
experience
living
next
to
a
house
that
is
full
of
sorority
girls.
They
change
out
every
six
months
to
a
year.
I
can
never
tell
they
never
know
who's
there
and
there
are
seven
of
them
that
live
there
now
and
frankly,
there's
a
lot
of
energy
there.
Y
No
one
has
ever
had
an
issue
with
a
single
student
there,
but
next
door
to
me
and
next
door
to
my
neighbors
two-door.
You
know
at
the
other
end
of
the
blog,
it
was
just
going
to
be
monumentous,
so
we
are
asking
you
to
allow
us
to
take
one
small
step
to
help
the
residents
help
the
city,
because
this
is
an
issue
that
doesn't
just
affect
our
block.
B
B
Z
Great
welcome
good
evening
to
members
of
city
council
city
staff
residents
in
attendance.
My
name
is
robinson
or
robbie
marcus.
I
am
a
fourth
ward
resident
and
I'm
a
worker
owner
and
vice
president
at
the
evanston
development
cooperative,
I'm
speaking
in
support
of
item
p5,
the
ordinance
on
accessory
dwelling
units,
I
think,
given
the
effects
of
the
coronavirus
pandemic
this
year,
the
home
has
shaped
many
of
our
lives
more
than
ever
in
2020.
Z
It's
difficult
to
live
a
healthy
life
when
the
cost
of
living
stretches
a
human
beyond
their
means,
and
I
think
we
as
a
community
need
to
collectively
identify
ways
to
make
our
community
affordable
to
people
of
all
races,
ages,
incomes,
ethnicities
and
identities.
And
tonight,
with
the
adu
ordinance
before
you
at
no
financial
cost
to
our
city
government.
Z
Z
A
cost
burden.
Homeowners
struggling
with
mortgage
payments
can
get
help
paying
the
bills
by
converting
a
basement
into
a
rental
unit.
Further,
this
ordinance
will
make
it
easier
for
an
older
resident
to
age
in
place
in
an
accessible
ground
level.
Adu
similar
to
the
scenario
mr
halligan
himself
is
in,
I
think
tonight.
Our
city
council
has
the
power
to
make
our
suburb
a
more
inclusive,
welcoming
community
committed
to
racial
justice
and
housing
affordability.
Z
B
AA
AA
B
Great
thank
you
rebecca
next
up
we've
got
david
schoenfeld,
barbara
blades,
then
peter
miller
welcome
david.
AB
Thank
you
mayor.
Thank
you,
members
of
the
council.
I
live
about
a
block
north
at
23,
2039
orrington,
about
a
block
north
of
the
1900
block,
and
I
strongly
urge
the
council
to
adopt
the
amended
r1
zoning
for
that
block.
I've
been
involved
for
more
than
25
years
in
land
use
issues
on
behalf
of
this
neighborhood
in
several
capacities.
AB
AB
Conversely,
right
across
the
alley,
a
house
owned
by
one
of
the
investors
on
the
1900
block
we've
had
nothing
but
trouble
with
them.
There
are.
There
are
legitimate
concerns
about
exclusionary
zoning
and
nimbyism,
but
they
don't
apply
in
this
instance.
By
any
stretch,
the
absentee
investors
are
not
buying
these
houses
across
the
street
from
northwestern
to
provide
affordable
housing
to
working
families.
They
want
to
rent
at
premiums
to
wealthy
northwestern
students.
AB
The
neighbors
on
that
block
have
invested
enormously
to
preserve
the
character
of
that
block
as
a
benefit
to
all
of
us,
and
the
zoning
should
be
consistent
across
the
neighborhood.
The
residents
of
that
block
deserve
the
same
zoning
as
the
rest
of
our
community,
the
rest
of
our
neighborhood.
So
I
strongly
urge
you
to
approve
the
proposed
amendment.
B
AC
I'm
john,
not
barbara
you'll
quickly
realize.
Can
you
hear.
AC
I'm
not
a
resident
of
orrington,
but
I'm
here
to
give
a
loud
shout
for
the
zoning
relief.
It's
an
item
that
shouldn't
even
be
open
to
debate,
it's
urgent
necessary
to
prevent
the
street
from
becoming
yet
another
casualty
of
predatory
blockbusters.
AC
That
is,
the
systematic
and
willful
destabilization
of
a
family
neighborhood
by
landlord
investors
and
realtors.
Without
the
zoning
change,
many
of
orrington's
family
homes
and
two
flats
will
be
transformed
into
student
tenements,
fraternities
sorority
party
annexes
playgrounds
for
beer
pong,
junk
guards
for
solo
cups
and
bud
cans.
AC
It's
bound
to
happen
if
you're
skeptical,
you
think
I'm
exaggerating,
look
at
what's
happening
or
what's
already
happened
in
the
fireman's
park,
neighborhood
on
maple
avenue,
where
I
live,
or
on
sherman
and
simpson,
and
gaffield
and
hamlin
and
garnett
all
formerly
family
neighborhoods.
That
fell
like
bowling
pins.
AC
B
B
AD
I
urge
you
please
to
not
agree
to
hear
the
appeal
of
the
recent
preservation
commission
ruling
that
denied
a
certificate
of
appropriateness
to
alterations
of
the
barn
at
2404
ridge
avenue.
This
appeal
is
entirely
without
merit.
It
repeats
unsubstantiated
claims
that
were
rejected
by
the
preservation
commission
last
year.
AD
It
seeks
to
substitute
the
appellant's
opinion
for
the
preservation
commission's
judgment.
The
appellant
is
cynically
using
the
processes
of
city
government
to
delay
coming
into
compliance
with
the
preservation
ordinance
ordinance,
which
he
has
violated
for
more
than
a
year.
The
appellant
has
sought
to
evade
responsibility
for
illegally
altering
the
bar.
AD
B
Okay,
thank
you
peter
next,
up
we've
got
sean
jones,
linda
del
bosque,
then
judith
treadway.
J
Good
evening
council,
firstly,
to
respond
on
sp1
the
to
hear
the
appeal
of
the
certificate
of
appropriateness.
This
case
has
been
going
on
since
1997.,
as
we
heard
in
planning
and
development.
It's
tied
up
with
the
subdivision.
You've
already
set
a
meeting
to
deal
with
kind
of
the
issues
of
the
subdivision.
J
This
matter
is
wrapped
up
with
it.
We
have
a
november
13th
deadline.
I
urge
you
just
to
hear
this
appeal
on
november
9th
so
that
we
can
try
to
get
all
of
these
issues
resolved
on
one
fell
swoop,
everything
to
do
with
this
property.
So
please
just
hear
the
appeal
hear
it
on
november
9th.
That's
when
we're
hearing
the
other
piece
of
this.
We
should
have
everything
wrapped
up
by
that.
J
J
There
are
no
no
restrictions
on
renting
your
house
if
you
own
a
house,
if
it's
r1,
you
can
rent
it,
it's
r4
you
can
rent
it.
This
is
the
rationale
most
cited
by
the
clan
plan.
Commission
voted
five
to
two
to
deny
the
zoning
change.
They
also
went
through
exhaustively
the
standards
that
were
raised
earlier.
We
don't
go
through
the
standards.
The
plan
commission
already
dealt
with
those
the
standards
just
aren't
met
in
this
case,
as
the
planned
commission
noted.
J
While
it
does
nothing
to
really
solve
the
problems
they're
talking
about,
you
still
have
beer
pong
and
r1,
you
still
have
absentee
landlords
in
r1.
You
end
up
hurting
people,
you
hurt
the
property
owner
at
714,
foster
who's
done
nothing
but
maintained
this
six
flat.
For
years,
it's
a
a
six
flat.
That's
been
was
built
113
years
ago.
Obviously,
as
a
six
flat,
you
have
the
letter
from
his
banker
saying
he
cannot
get
a
loan
to
improve
this
property.
If
it
shifts
to
r1,
you
are
hurting
him.
J
He
pays
over
thirty
seven
thousand
dollars
a
year
in
property
taxes
and
you're,
going
to
diminish
his
property
value
and
for
what
you're
not
going
to
solve
the
problems.
The
problems
with
student
living
in
houses
are
real.
We
need
to
address
them,
but
r1
is
not
the
way
to
do
it.
In
fact,
r1
is
just
bad
policy
entirely,
and
the
city
needs
to
move
away
from
r1
and
I
believe
they
are.
The
equity
empowerment
commission
is
already
talking
about
eliminating
r1
because
it
eliminates
flexibility,
housing
advocates
and
planners
are
in
agreement.
J
J
B
Thank
you.
Sean
next
up
we've
got
linda
del
bosque,
then
judith
treadway,
then
tina
payton.
AE
Oh
hi
welcome.
I
just
got
through
working
out.
So
excuse
me:
okay,
if
we
are
going
to
be
arguing
about
r1
as
the
community,
rather
they're,
purchasing
a
home,
that's
over
100
years
old
or
their
new
home.
That's
just
moving
into
evanston
community
would
like
to
retire
and
live
here
for
many
years
and
we're
arguing
about
students
or
just
why?
Don't
we
revisit
the
r1
and
protect
the
families
who've
invested
to
live
here
and
create
a
family
and
and
do
not
particularly
want
to
move
next
to
a
frat
or
sorority
house?
AE
Yes,
this
is
a
college
student,
I'm
in
college
city,
but
at
the
same
time
this
is
a
community
built
by
family
by
generations,
and
you
see
from
eth
students
moving
back
20
years
later,
so
people
do
want
to.
This
is
a
destination
city,
so
r1
just
needs
to
be
revisited,
but
at
the
same
time
protect
the
community
members
that
have
purchased
a
home
and
that
are
living
their
generation.
It's
a
generational
home!
So
that's
my
that's
my
input
to
the
city
manager
as
we
are
identifying
as
a
community.
AE
We
need
to
make
sure
that
the
city
manager
has
a
perspective
of
the
needs
of
hispanic
community,
no
matter
the
ethnic
descent.
We
currently
need
to
review
the
digital
divide.
I
don't
know,
what's
taking
so
long,
I
know
they're
doing
a
good
job,
I'm
sure
they
are,
but
there
needs
to
be
a
digital
vibe
program
in
place.
AE
I
emailed
you
mayor,
also
luke
many
municipal
cities
across
the
united
states
are
creating
their
own
business
and
putting
it
under
a
fund,
and
that
is
something
that
city
of
evanston
can
look
at
as
a
way
to
create
and
generate
money
parking
opportunity
for
payments.
Thank
you
to
alderman
fleming
for
speaking
to
luke
and
just
addressing
this
we
do
have
to
put
something
in
plan.
I
have
personally
contributed
and
sponsored
the
city
of
evanston
parking.
I
paid
over
five
thousand
dollars
in
parking
in
three
years.
AE
B
AE
B
We've
got
judith
treadway
next
tina
peyton,
then
I
believe
kenneth
chuwa.
I
apologize
if
I'm
mispronouncing
your
name.
I've
got
alyssa
ross
here,
but
I
believe
that's
alyssa
kaplan,
who
they
spoke
earlier.
B
If
there's
a
separate
alyssa
ross
that
wants
to
speak
I'll,
come
to
you
at
the
very
end
judith.
B
O
AF
Hi
unable
to
start
the
video
start,
my
video,
can
you
see?
Oh
there,
we
go
all
right
good
evening,
mayor
hillary
and
city
council
members
and
good
evening
to
my
neighbors
peter
and
laura
matt
and
megan
bob
and
julie,
alicia
and
max
rebecca
and
philip
and
susan
and
ken
biermann,
mr
biermann,
I'm
pretty
supposed
to
like
you,
because
I
have
the
same
name
as
you
good
evening,
in
particular
to
alderman
judy
who
brought
this
topic,
because
I
know
she's
trying
to
help
and
listen
to
their
constituents.
AF
I
believe
the
overarching
goal
of
this
meeting
is
to
come
up
with
a
resolution
to
one
preserve
architectural
integrity,
two
provide
safe
and
decent
homes
for
property
owners
and
renters,
three
maintain
harmonious
living
amongst
neighbor
and
four
reduced
rockets
and
uncontrolled
noise
at
all
hours
of
the
day.
If
you
look
around
you,
I
believe
that
our
historical
preservation
commission
has
done
a
more
than
wonderful
job.
AF
I
believe
that
our
planning,
commission
and
planning
and
sony
committee
members
have
also
done
a
wonderful
job.
Our
law
enforcers
have
also
done
a
great
job,
given
the
resources
we
as
citizens
have
given
them.
We
just
need
to
open
our
eyes
and
look
around
us.
We
see
nice
houses
and
dilapidated
houses
side
by
side
across
all
zoning
areas.
By
rezoning,
we
are
insulting
our
neighbors,
who
proudly
take
care
of
the
properties,
the
way
that
they
should,
regardless
of
the
zoning.
AF
It
is
not
the
zoning
that
makes
the
house
a
nice
house,
it
is
the
property
owners
that
causes
it.
No
amount
of
rezoning
will
make
things
better.
It
is
neighbors
talking
to
neighbors
and
helping
one
another
that
will
make
things
better.
I
want
to
be
able
to
walk
down
the
street
and
look
at
my
neighbors
in
the
eye
and
them
knowing
that
I'm
doing
everything
to
help
them
rather
than
to
create
problems
for
them.
I'm
not
upset
with
them,
because
I
understand
their
concerns,
but
rezoning
is
not
the
solution.
AF
Let
us
not
put
a
giant
duct
tape
on
the
wrong
pipe,
hoping
that
the
leak
will
go
away.
Let
us
focus
on
the
pipe
that
has
to
leak
and
fix
it
properly.
I
asked
the
city
council
to
reject
the
proposal
for
rezoning
the
arlington
area.
In
the
end
I
want
I
want
the
concerns
of
my
fellow
neighbors
to
be
resolved,
because
resolving
their
concerns
can
also
help
increase
my
property
value,
but
rezoning
is
not
the
solution.
AF
The
city
wants
flexible,
adaptable
zoning
classifications,
open
to
all
and
not
highly
restricted
classifications,
open
to
only
a
select
few.
Let
us
be
inclusive
rather
than
exclusive.
Let
us
vote
to
reject
this
petition
for
rezoning
and
instead
talk
about
how
we
can
all
make
this
a
better
place
to
live.
Changing
to
our
ones
simply
would
not
solve
the
problems
we
are
trying
to
solve.
B
AG
Great,
thank
you,
hello,
everybody.
I'm
sue,
lolbach
with
connections
for
the
homeless
and
joining
forces
for
affordable
housing.
I'll
speak
briefly
on
several
points
related
to
affordable
housing,
one
regarding
the
zoning
change
proposed
for
orrington
avenue.
Joining
forces
advocates
that
the
city
address
the
very
serious
problem
that
the
community
is
trying
to
solve,
but
without
down
zoning
and
reducing
the
flexibility
with
which
land
can
be
used.
AG
Second,
we
thank
alderman
simmons
for
making
a
referral
for
a
review
and
revision
of
the
city's
zoning
code
through
a
lens
of
like
racial
equity
and
affordability.
This
is
the
right
time
to
do
this
work,
and
this
is
a
key
step
in
undoing
redlining.
Supporting
reparations
three
also
related
to
flexibility
and
land
use.
Joining
forces
strongly
supports
the
adu
ordinance
changes
being
voted
on
tonight
and
last.
AG
Affordable
housing
was
part
of
the
strategy
for
economic
development
described
at
the
last
council
meeting.
We
appreciate
this
and
would
like
to
make
two
related
points.
First,
we
hope
that
affordable
housing
will
be
considered
as
the
very
first
possible
use
for
all
city-owned
plots
of
land
that
are
being
considered
for
sale.
AG
Second,
mixed
income
buildings
are
one
way
to
create
affordability.
However,
we
can
create
even
more
with
100,
affordable
buildings
developers
do
not
need
the
city
to
figure
out
how
to
fund
their
buildings.
Developers
just
need
a
plot
of
land,
and
they
need
to
know
that
the
community
supports
their
developments.
They
will
figure
out
the
financing.
AG
B
Thank
you.
Thank
you
sue
and
then
last
we've
got
mike
ellis.
AH
Welcome
good
evening,
mayor
and
city
council
members
appreciate
you
having
us
on
this
evening.
We
would
just
like
to
take
this
opportunity
to
say
we'd
appreciate
your
support
on
the
recommended
parks
and
recreation
resolution.
79
r20
and
the
honorary
street
sign
for
black
lives
matter
way
in
front
of
eths
on
dodge
street.
AH
Between
church
and
lake
intersections,
we
had
an
eventful
day
with
the
leadership
of
alderman
braithwaite
and
some
assistance
from
alderman
rue
simmons,
and
we
were
able
to
send
a
message
motivated
by
what
we've
seen
throughout
the
country
led
by
washington,
dc's
painting
of
black
lives
matter
on
their
street
in
front
of
the
white
house.
So
I
want
to
introduce
to
you
three
of
our
basketball
players
at
the
high
school
that
were
instrumental
in
in
leading
us
with
this
project.
V
Hello,
hello,
how
are
you
doing?
My
name
is
isaiah
holden,
I'm
speaking
on
behalf
of
the
everson
basketball
team,
I'm
a
senior
it
was
really
nice
and
very
it
was
a
very
memorable
moment
to
see
how
the
community
came
out
together,
pain
in
the
street
black
lives
matter.
It
was
very
important
to
the
basketball
team,
and
I
just
to
see
that
like,
although
it
was
just
very,
it
was
important
because
we
we
all,
we
have
to
make
a
change
and
paint
the
street.
V
P
In
addition
to
what
isaiah
said,
I
believe
it
will
be
a
great
opportunity
to
create
an
ira
sign
growing
up
right
on
dodge
there
to
really
emphasize
the
the
idea
of
black
lives
matter
and
equality
and
with
the
upcoming
weather
conditions
coming
up
during
the
winter.
Well,
the
back
light
matter
painting
may
fade,
so
it's
just
another
great
opportunity
to
reinstate
the
idea
of
black
lives
matter
with
the
honorary
sign.
H
Hello,
everybody,
my
name
is
blake
peters,
I'll,
be
a
senior
or
I
am
a
senior
right
now
at
eths.
I'd
like
to
echo
some
of
the
same
sentiments
as
isaiah
and
elijah,
but
really
we
just
feel
like
this
is
a
great
opportunity
to
promote
a
lot
of
the
values
that
many
of
us
in
our
community
hold
dear.
H
We
feel,
like
you,
know,
promotes
inclusivity,
anti-racism,
and
you
know
things
related
to
that.
So
we
would
really
appreciate
your
support
and
we
look
forward
to
hearing
the
result.
Thank
you.
B
Great
great
thanks,
thank
you
thank
you
mike,
and,
and
thank
you
to
to
the
three
players
that
that
just
spoke
in
support
of
black
lives
matter
way,
which
is
on
our
agenda
tonight.
So
we'll
we'll
talk
more
about
that
shortly.
Luke
stowe!
I
just
want
to
make
sure
I
I
went
through
everybody
on
the
list,
just
want
to
confirm
that
mayor.
B
B
I
know
I
speak
on
behalf
of
the
entire
city
council
when
I
say
we
appreciate
hearing
directly
from
the
community
on
a
variety
of
issues.
So
thank
you
for
that.
We're
now
going
to
move
to
the
agenda
for
this
evening.
B
We
have
one
item
on
the
agenda,
which
is
a
special
order
of
business
and
I'm
going
to
ask
alderman.
B
Well,
I'm
gonna,
I'm
gonna
ask
if
there
is
a
alderman
that
would
like
to
move
sp1
if
you
could
just
raise
your
hand
and
I'll
call
on.
B
B
All
right
just
for
the
public,
that's
watching
s,
people.
B
Need
to
be
moved
well,
sp1,
just
so
we're
clear.
Sp1
is
the
appeal
of
the
preservation
commission
decision,
denying
a
certificate
of
appropriateness
for
the
barn
structure
at
2404
ridge
avenue
to
approve
existing
conditions
of
windows
and
skylights,
and
I'm
just
going
to
read
it.
So
everyone
understands
the
city
council
may
make
a
motion.
That's
why
I
was
asking.
If
anyone
has
a
motion,
the
city
council
may
make
a
motion
to
accept
the
application
for
appeal.
B
If
a
motion
is
made
and
adopted,
the
city
council
shall
affirm,
modify
or
reverse
the
decision
of
the
preservation
commission
within
45
days
no
later
than
november
13
2020.
If
no
motion
to
accept
the
application
for
appeal
is
made
and
adopted.
The
decision
of
the
commission
shall
be
final,
so
I
will
ask
again,
if
there's
a
council
member
that
would
like
to
move
sp1
I'll
move
it.
B
Okay,
I
don't
see-
I
don't
see
a
second
on
the
council
too,
this
motion,
so
the
motion
is
not
being
moved
to
the
to
the
city
council
for
a
vote
this
evening.
For
anyone,
that's
watching,
I
will
say
we
periodically
have
appeals
from
the
preservation
commission
come
up
and
this
is
sort
of
how
the
city
council
has
handled
it.
B
This
isn't
the
first
time
that
the
council's
chosen
not
to
move
a
motion
so
with
that
sp1
is
not
moved
for
action
this
evening,
we're
now
going
to
move
to
the
consent,
agenda
and
other
items
on
on
the
agenda.
I'm
going
to
ask
alderman
ruse,
simmons
well,
actually
alderman
alderman,
ruse,
simmons.
What
I'm
going
to
ask
of
you
is
I'm
going
to
ask
you
to
move
the
city
council
meetings
and
then.
B
So
if
you
take
a
minute
look
at
the
agenda
and
if
the
chairs
of
the
two
committees,
you
know
kept
notes,
if
you
want
to,
if
you
want
to
start,
but
it's
open
to
anyone
to
remove
items
which
one

It

we

It

It

All
right,

I'm
gonna

I'm
going
to
ask
if
alderman
rue
simmons
would
move
the
minutes
and
then
the

then
just
the
entire
consent
agenda.
As
we've
agreed
to
you,
don't
have
to
read
off
each
each
item
but
you're
just
moving
everything
in

approval
of

B
Nope,
I'm
just
doing
these
separate
because
they
weren't
in
committee
yeah
and
and
then,
if
a
council
member
wants
any
of
these
minutes
off.
Just
make
note
of
that.
AI
B
Yeah,
you
don't
need
to
read
through
it.
So
now
all
you
need
all
you
need
to
do
is
since
there
was
no
objection,
we're
going
to
include
the

just
want

the

we'll
see
if
there's

S
Altman
braithwaite,
thank
you
just
as
a
matter
of
procedure
and
I
see
alderman,
so
we
didn't
vote
on
the
consent
agenda.
I
just
wanted
to
pull
this
off,
make
a
few
comments
and
then
also
allow
that
this
didn't
pass
on
consent,
and
it
was
a
roll
call
vote
for
for
two
reasons.
So
do
we
need
to
vote
on
this
at
the
end
of
voting
on
consent?
B
S
Thank
you.
I
just
wanted
to
again
thank
coach,
ellison
and
his
staff
that
day
there
were
so
many
members
of
the
community
that
showed
up
all
just
a
lot
of
the
student
athletes,
and
I
just
want
to
take
a
moment
to
acknowledge
that.
I
know
that
they
were
rushed
on
time
at
the
top
of
the
meeting.
He
acknowledged
alderman
simmons,
as
well
as
paulina,
that
worked
very
hard
behind
the
scene.
I'll
add
director
lawrence
hemingway
to
that
list,
as
well
as
sheik
who
helped
with
facilitating
the
language.
S
And
I
think
just
in
terms
of
the
process,
I
wanted
to
thank
them.
The
other
thing
I
want
to
call
out,
because
I'm
going
to
assume
this
is
going
to
pass
with
unanimous
as
much
criticism
as
we
have
to
take
from
many
members
of
our
local
community
who
use
labels
like
racism,
and
we
don't
get
behind
things.
I
think
that
this
is
significant
and
there
are
many
towns
and
communities
that
would
not
have
an
opportunity
to
do
this
and
I
think
pride
that
it's
going
to
pass
on
our
council.
AI
Thank
you
just
to
add
on
to
our
birth
weight.
Thank
you
to
coach,
ellis

all
of
the
members
of
the
boys

girls,
basketball
teams,
all
the
other

everyone
from

came
in
that
day,
in
an
immediate
response
to
take
some
action
in
our

again
anti-black
racism.

thank
you

your
boldness
for
your
effort

seeing
through
our
long
process

glad

you.

staff
recommends
city
council
adoption
of
ordinance,
55020
amending
the
amusement
tax
to
include
online
streaming
services
and
to
clarify
that
the
tax
applies
to
media
that
is
capable
of
being
streamed
to
mobile
devices.
Amusement
tax
revenue
is
deposited
to

This
is
for

B
For
a
second
second,
in
that
alderman,
okay,
did
you
second,
that
alderman
win?
Yes,
okay,
all
right,
so
this
item's
open
for
discussion
alderman
suffered
him.
I.
AL
Just
wanna
declare
I
was
informed
by
nicholas
cummings
that
there
was
communication
between
a
client
of
mine
and
the
city
on
this
matter,
so
I
will
have
seen
I'm
voting
on
it.
AJ
I
have
a
question
for
clarification.
I
put
notes
in
the
last
streaming
text,
but
given
that
we
are
now
in
pandemic
and
kids
are
streaming,
you
know
everything.
I
know
my
kids
had
to
watch
some
kind
of
show,
or
you
know
some
kind
of
streaming
video.
How
do
those
things
work
for
our
students
who,
like
are
using
hot
spots
and
are
streaming
things
for
sp
with
that
that
bill?
AJ
O
I
can
explain
unless
corporation
council
comes
on,
the
tax
is
only
applied
to
subscription
services.
So
if
you
have
a
subscription
to
netflix
or
a
subscription
to
hulu,
then
it
would
be
applied
at
the
five
percent
rate
at
the
monthly
charge
or
for
any
purchases
that
may
be
made
during
the
course
of
the
month
not
applied
to
any
student
services
or
any
schooling.
B
B
B
Anymore,
all
right,
I'm
gonna,
okay,
I'm
gonna
ask
kimberly
richardson,
who
sometimes
serves
as
our
deputy
city
clerk.
If
she
would
take
the
role
on

how
about

right
so
p4

now
been

from

and
the
council
will
reconsider
it
shortly
and
that
was
on
a
9-0
vote
to
reconsider.
AI
AJ
Yeah,
I
have
a
question
just
for
staff.
I
realize
this
fee
is
not
necessarily
very
big,
but
it's
going
to,
I
believe,
overlapped
at
some
point
with
the
current
community.
So
I'm
just
interested
to
see
how
we're
going
to
communicate
that
to
the
residents.
AN
Good
evening,
honorable
mayor
members
of
the
city
council
and
interim
city
manager,
sterling
kumar
jensen,
chief
sustainability
and
resilience
officer,
we
I
think
we
will.
We
can
certainly
do
communications
via
our
our
e-news
and
some
of
our
other
platforms
to
to
make
residents
aware.
We've
been
working
on
language
just
to
try
to
make
it
very
clear
what
the
overlap
is
and
what
the
intended
or
what
the
anticipated
impact
of
the
of
the
overlapping
fee
are.
AN
We
are
also
prepared
to
because
the
overlap
will
be
in
effect
for
about
17
months,
we're
also
committed
to,
at
the
end
of
the
year
and
moving
into
early
2021,
looking
at
ways
to
try
to
ease
that
burden,
particularly
on
residents
that
are
already
feeling
pinched
in
their
utility
bills
and
their
utility
expenses.
Particularly
on
the
electric
side.
We
have
a
lot
of
new
opportunities
coming
up
in
terms
of
our
energy
agreements,
and
so
we're
hopeful
we'll
be
able
to
find
ways
to
to
ease
this,
at
least
for
some
of
some
residents.
AN
AN
Suggestions
that
aldermen
have
as
to
locations
or
groups
that
we
should
share
this
information
with.
I
provide
to
to
make
sure
that
we
communicate
directly
with
organizations
or
groups.
AJ
Kumar,
what
is
the
I
realized
that
comment
feed
we
pay
in
the
rears,
but
what
is
the
downside
of
us
waiting
until
we're
finished
with
a
combat
piece
to
start
collecting
this
one?
So
they're,
not
two
fees.
AN
The
downside
is
that
the
city
would
lose
about
480
000
in
I'm
just
going
to
call
it
value
that
we
have
used
historically
to
pay
for
electricity
for
the
facilities
that
were
we're
getting
unbilled
or
free
electricity
for,
and
so
the
transition
is
moving
from
getting
this
unbuilt
electricity
to
getting
a
cash
payment
and
by
receiving
that
cash
payment
and
beginning
to
purchase
electricity
for
those
facilities.
AN
We
will
be
able
to
purchase
renewable
energy
for
those
facilities
and
look
at
things
like
solar
on
site
as
well
as
off-site.
So
the
downside
is
that
we
would
have
to
cover
about
480
000
in
operating
expenses.
AJ
Okay,
thank
you
so
I
I
understand
this
and
I
I
do
like
the
idea
of
not
you
know
paying
comic
within
all
of
the
news
with
the
corruption
there.
However,
as
you
mentioned,
you
know
we
have
residents
who
are
really.
AJ
You
know
we're
really
counting
every
penny
before
and
are
really
at
the
breaking
point
now,
and
so,
even
though
this
is
not
a
huge
fee,
just
you
know,
any
fee
seems
like
a
lot
to
some
people
and
it
and
again
it
gets
back
to
people
feeling
like
the
city
is
nickel
and
diming
them.
It
would
be
great
if
we
did
not
overlap
with
the
common
fee.
It
will
be
a
little
easier
to
tolerate.
AJ
I
will
suggest
I
will
not
support
it,
because
I
hear
from
residents
all
the
time
about
what
they
can't
afford,
but
I
would
suggest,
maybe
even
past,
assuming
you
know,
15
and
16
go
past.
Maybe
there
is
an
insert
that
goes
in
the
water
bill,
since
most
people
get
that
just
explain
versus
our
e-newsletter.
I
know
we
send
a
lot
of
emails
out
and
everyone
does
not
get
them.
So
I
think
we
as
much
as
paper
cost
us
and
we
don't
want
to
be
adding
to
landfills.
AJ
I
think
anything
we
have
where
there's
a
rate
changes
we
might
want
to
communicate
in
our
water
bill
with
a
flyer
of
some
sort
and
maybe
a
link
or
something
else
in
there
just
to
make
sure
people
are
older.
Residents
are
thinking,
you
know
they
are
what's
happening
and
they're
not
worried
about
being
in
damn
or
something.

Yes,

two
municipal
occupation,
taxes

the
evanston

an
infrastructure
maintenance
fee,
passes
the
evanston
city
council

an
eight
to
one
vote:
alderman
rue
simmons.
Could
you
move
a16.
AI
Absolutely
staff
recommend
city
council
adoption
of
ordinance
85020
amending
chapter.
Excuse
me
title
eight
chapter
four
part:
nine
section:
two
franchise
imposition
of
franchise
service,
administration,
administrative
fees.
This
is
for
action.
AJ
AN
AJ
Okay
and
then
what
is
just
for
the
public
who
are
watching?
What
do
you
estimate
the
average
fee
being
for
look
at
different
papers?
You
had
to
break
down
in
here,
but
any.
Can
you
explain
what
the
average
rate
of
increase
would
be
average
freeze.
AN
Well,
so
it
is
a
little
difficult
to
say
average
across
all
of
the
accounts,
because
the
the
range
is
pretty
large
so
for
for
commercial
accounts
that
are
receiving
one
collection
a
week,
so
they
have
one
garbage
collection
a
week,
they're
actually
all
going
to
receive
a
cost
savings.
That's
about
that's
close
to
500
accounts
it
as
you
as
you
ramp
up
in
the
number
of
pickups
that
you
have
a
week.
The
average
cost
ranges
from.
AN
If
you
have
two
collections
a
week,
the
average
price
change
is
going
to
be
about
five
dollars,
and
if
you
have
six
pickups
a
week,
the
average
price
range
could
be
update.
Well,
the
average
price
will
be
59.
AN
I
want
to
caveat
that
by
saying
that
as
the
the
position
that
would
be
hired
as
well
as
some
of
our
existing
team
would
be
working
to
prioritize
and
reaching
out
to
the
customers
that
are
on
that
higher
end
first,
to
try
to
work
with
them
to
to
make
sure
that
they
they
don't
see
that
59,
that
average
of
59
increase
on
their
bill.
AJ
Okay,
so
again
you
know,
I'm
not
that
excited
about
new
fees,
particularly
things
that
are
going
to
go
to
new
positions,
but
you
know
I
do
continue
to
hear
from
people
about
trash
collection,
particularly
at
our
you
know:
multi-family
homes
and
apartment
buildings
and
kind
of
regulating
those
which
I
know
our
staff
does
a
good
job
on,
but
takes
a
lot
of
time.
So
I
I
will
support
this
one.
AJ
I
will
just
encourage
you
to
be
very
clear
and
aggressive
with
communications
before
we
have
people
who
are
calling
about
a
new
rate
or
new
fee
that
they
see
and
are
not
clear
about
that.
M
It
seems
that
we
need
we,
we
need
so
many
people
that
we've
already
laid
off
or
actually
fired,
and
I'm.
M
If
this
is
the
one
greatest
and
latest
position
that
we
have
to
add
to
our
workforce,
I'm
just
not
sure
I
feel
I
have
a
there's
something
pulling
me.
I
I
I'm
going
to
support
it,
but
I'm
very
concerned
that
maybe
not
enough
work
has
been
done
to
decide
whether
or
not
we
need
this
additional
position.
O
Sure
thank
you,
mr
mayor.
I
was
just
going
to
add
that
this
will
be
part
of
the
budget
discussion
that
we
have
next
month.
So
it's
not.
You
know
it's
it's
up
for
continued
debate.
Okay,.
AC
O
O
Once
we
got
a
sense
of
the
funding
and
guaranteed
that
it
was
coming
in
as
we
anticipated
and
that
that
that
point
we
could
budget
it
for
the
six
months
of
2021,
or
we
could
simply
wait
and
do
a
budget
amendment
at
the
appropriate
time
mid-year
next
year
or
whenever
the
timing
was
sufficient
for
ensuring
that
the
revenue
was
there.
AN
Yeah
absolutely
so,
when
I
first
started
in
2014,
my
my
first
project
was
working
with
the
public
works
department
at
the
time
to
go
out
in
canvas
about
180,
different
multi-family
properties
and
work
with
them
one-on-one
to
talk
them
through
individual
property
level,
analysis
of
changing
their
their
recycling
and
switching
over
to
or
switching
out
their
garbage
for
recycling
capacity.
And
so
we
actually
have
a
lot
of
the
sort
of
programmatic
infrastructure
in
place
from
the
pilot
that
we
did
back
in
2014.
AJ
It
sounds
sounds
feasible,
but
I'm
concerned
about
you
know
kind
of
collecting,
please
hoping
that
we'll
have
enough
to
hire
a
person
so
kind
of
charging
people
into
something
that
we're,
maybe
not
sure,
is
going
to
take
off,
and
I
am
I
mean
we
have
laid
off
a
ton
of
people
and
while
this
is
important
I
you
know
I
do
have
something
about
if
it
is
the
most
important,
if
I'm
going
to,
you
know,
transfer
the
cost
to
the
residents,
so
you
know
I
think,
back
to
voting.
AJ
B
Thank
you
all.
Thank
you,
alderman,
seeing
no
more
discussion
or
questions

a16
passes
the
evanston
city
council
for
action
on
an

Could
you
please
move
item
p1
we're
now
going
to
move
into
the
items
on

that
removed

F
Yes,
thank
you,
mr
mayor
item.
P1
is
renewal
contract
for
landlord
tenant
services
with
metropolitan
tenants
organization
and
lawyers
committee
for
better
housing
for
from
october
1
2020
to
december
31
2021.,
the
housing
and
homelessness
commission
and
staff
recommend
approval
of
a
not
to
exceed
amount
of
eighty
seven
thousand
dollars
five.
Eighty
seven
thousand
five
hundred
dollars
renewal
contract
with
metropolitan
attendance
organization
and
lawyers
committee
for
better
housing
for
landlord
tenant
services.
AI
AJ
Yeah,
I
would
just
one
question
so
part
of
the
scope
of
service.
Here
is
an
attorney
I'm
trying
to
find
it.
Who
would
help
with
I
think
evictions,
and
so,
given
that
we
have
a
moratorium
and
we're
expecting
a
flood
of
evictions
when
the
courts
open?
I
wanted
to
just
see
if
staff
can
give
us
give
me
an
idea
of
how
many
evictions-
or
you
know,
what's
their
capacity
of
that
kind
of
representation.
N
AK
I
am
lawyers
committee
for
better
housing,
does
a
great
deal
of
representation
for
chicago
people
when
it
for.
AK
They
have
not
been
doing
a
great
deal
of
this
work
in
evanston,
but
their
capacity
I
don't
expect
their
capacity
would
be.
I
mean
they
have
substantial
capacity.
I
think,
frankly,
all
the
legal
services
organizations
will
be
strained
and
these
moratoriums
burn
off,
because
it's
very
much
like
what
we're
dealing
with
with
almost
everything
about
the
pandemic.
AK
You
know,
I
don't
think
any
organization
is
going
to
have
the
capacity
to
deal
with
absolutely
everyone
who
needs
help,
but
lawyers
committee
for
better
housing
does
have
significant
capacity
and,
as
I
say,
has
been
working
in
chicago
for
a
long
time.
I
can
certainly
get
you
more
information
on
how
many
cases
they
handle
in
general.
I
don't
have
that
information
at
the
moment.
AK
F
In
the
materials
we
received
on
page
279
of
the
packet
in
the
letter
we
received
from
the
metropolitan
tennis
organization,
they
comment
that
the
lawyers
committee
for
better
housing
has
been
in
existence
for
40
years
and
they
have
represented.
They
have
defended
thousands
of
tenants
in
eviction
court
to
help
them
avoid
hopelessness.
F
I
I
think
an
organization
in
the
lawyers
committee,
that's
been
around
for
40
years
must
have
been
clearly
has
done,
work
through
the
the
great
recession
period
of
time,
so
they
probably
have
had
a
lot
of
experience
with
10
years
ago
or
or
so
when
that,
when
the
last
time
we
had
a
big
peak,
so
it
sounds
like
they're
very
experienced.
AJ
My
question
is
not
regarding
experience,
it's
the
regarding
capacity
that
we're
paying
them
for
so
you
know
I'm
not
doubting
their
experience.
I
just
realized
that
a
lot
of
people
are
going
to
need
for
service
in
the
next
year
of
which
we're
paying
them
up
to
80
000.
So
I
want
to
make
sure
you
know
we're
getting
our
money's
worth
so
at
this
point
it
says
you
know
their
helpline
they're
doing
35
calls
35
to
40
calls
a
week
or
excuse
me
per
month,
although
we're
paying
them
for
a
hotline.
AJ
That's
open,
100
hours
a
week.
They
provide
written
materials
upon
request
and
only
two
at
least
two
two-hour
training.
So
sarah
do
you
think,
given
the
capacity
we
anticipate,
will
they
be
able
to
add
more
online
trainings
that
people
can
access
instead
of
the
two
that
they
are
committing
to
in
these
documents?
And
then
the
one
two
hour,
training.
AK
We
could
potentially
do
more
trainings
the
benefit
that
we
learned
this
year
of
doing
trainings
online
and
then
recording
them
is
we
actually
can
make
them
accessible
to
many
many
people.
I
would
like
to
address
your
question
about
capacity
for
legal
assistance.
Direct
legal
assistance,
though
the
contract
with
lawyers
committee
for
better
housing
and
mto
is
divided
into
two
components,
and
there
is
the
58
500
is
paid
on.
A
quarterly
is
divided
equally
and
paid
on
a
quarterly
basis.
AK
The
remaining
funds
are
the
funds
that
would
be
used
for
specifically
representing
clients
in
court,
so
there
are
two
two
parts
to
it,
but
we
will
ramp
up
the
work
to
address
evictions
and
things
like
that.
Lawyers
committee
for
better
housing
has
already,
for
example,
developed
a
form
that
they
haven't
gone
live
with,
because
the
state
moratorium
is
still
in
effect,
but
a
form
that
if
the
state
moratorium
ends
before
the
cdc
one
that
can
be
used
by
people
to
fill
out
the
required
information
that
they
need
to
submit
to
show.
AK
AJ
Okay,
so
my
last
comment:
I've
read
so
I
realized
the
breakdown
in
the
cost.
I
did
read
the
packet,
so
we're
paying
mark
scores.
He
would
be
an
additional
fee,
so
that
would
be
the
additional
29
000
if
we
went
with
it.
So
that's
just
one
attorney,
so
that
was
part
of
my
question
in
terms
of
their
capacity
for
people
in
evanston,
who
might
call
311
looking
for
service
who
might
think
that
this
service
can
help
them.
AJ
So
as
we
move
forward
in
the
year,
I'd
just
like
to
close
attention
services
they
are
providing
because
I'm
going
to
approve
the
contract,
because
I
know
people
need
the
assistance.
I
just
want
to
make
sure
we
are
getting
the
most
for
our
money,
particularly
because
this
is
not
the
affordable
housing
fund,
and
you
know
in
perfect
world
I'd.
AJ
Much
rather
have
this
money
go
into
paying
someone's
rent
or
you
know,
going
to
a
developer,
making
some
affordable
housing
or
something
that
was
more
tangible
for
people,
however,
because
it's
from
another,
affordable
housing
fund,
and
so
that
I
would
like
that
to
be
used
for
housing.
However,
I
will
support
this
because
this
ideally
will
help
keep
people
in
their
housing,
particularly
as
we
come
out
of
the
pandemic.
So
thank.
AK
You
one
last
comment:
mark
schwartz,
isn't
the
only
employer's
committee
for
better
housing.
They
have
other
staff
who
work
all
the
time
with
mto
on
advising
tenants
and
the
additional
money
that
is
the
paid
as
specific
cases
are
handled,
is
separate
and
different
from
that.
The
lawyers
committee
for
better
housing
lawyers
and
legal
staff
work
with
mto
all
the
time
on
issues,
including
eviction.
B
Thank
you.
Sarah
alderman
wilson,
alderman
flamindia
moore.
AJ
C
Thank
you.
Actually,
ms
flax.
Thank
you.
I
appreciate
you
answered
most
of
the
questions
and
points
I
was
going
to
try
to
raise,
but
I
think
that
this
is
this
is
such
a
unique
situation,
particularly
with
a
series
of
moratoriums
that
at
some
point,
are
going
to
end
on
a
given
day,
which
I
think
is
going
to
result
in
just
probably
an
unmanageable
crush
of
of
demand.
C
So
you
know
I
radar
it's
going
to
be
challenging.
C
We
have
to
power
through
this,
but
I
know
that
a
number
of
other
community
partners
are
are
contemplating
this
and
presumably
we'll
be
working
to
also
try
to
preside,
provide
some
additional
capacity
in
different
ways,
but
you
know
to
the
extent
that
these
two
groups
can
do
more
of
what
you
were
describing
miss
flax,
like
things
like
online
availability
of
information,
just
as
much
information
as
we
can
make
readily
available
to
people
who
might
not
be
able
to
get
through
to
this
phone
call
on
you
know,
january
3rd,
after
the
moratorium
comes
undone
and
cases
start
getting
filed.
C
You
know
we
just
we
need
to
be
as
prepared
as
we
can
be.
It's
going
to
be
hard,
but
we'll
just
do
the
best
we
can
do.
AK
We
will
absolutely
do
that.
We've
already
started
doing
that
sort
of
thing,
both
the
city
website
and
mto
and
their
website.
For
example,
we
put
up
a
lot
of
information
about
the
applications
for
both
rent
assistance
from
you
know,
so
we
really
are
trying
to
build
out
mto's
website
and
the
city's
website
we're
also
communicating
with
other
partners
in
evanston
who
work
like
connection
to
the
homeless
and
right.
M
Well,
I
would
like
I
would
like
you
to
copy
us
on
that
information.
It's
really
gets
impossible
after
a
while
to
search
through
all
the
different
pages
on
the
city's
website
to
find
this
little
bit
of
information
on
that
little
bit
of
information.
What
I
would
like-
and
I
have
I
have
criticized
these
two
groups
in
the
past.
However,
I
do
want
to
say
that
over
the
years
there's
nothing
been
more
supportive
to
tenants
and
landlords
than
the
lawyers
committee
for
better
housing.
M
I've
worked
with
them
for
years
and
years
and
years
and
not
by
not
through
the
city
but
through
other
housing
organizations.
I've
been
involved
with
their
their
credentials
have
been
impeccable.
However,
what
I'd
like
to
see
is
I'd
like
to
see
some
a
few
good
stories
where
lawyers
committee
for
better
housing
and
mto
helped
evanson
residents.
I've
not
really
seen
that
or
felt
that
so,
and
I
think
sarah
knows
that
I've
had
some
issues
with
getting
help
from
them,
but
they're
the
only
game
in
town.
M
As
far
as
I
can
see
at
this
point
and
our
our
tenants
and
landlords
and
homeowners
are
all
going
to
need
help
pretty
soon,
so
if
not
right
now,
so
I'm
I'm
going
to
support
this,
but
I
really
would
like
to
see
them
step
up
to
the
plate
more
in
evanston
be
more
hands-on.
M
I
mean
I've,
never
gotten
a
a
thing
from
lawyers
committee
or
metropolitan
tenants,
saying:
hey,
here's
what
we've
done
lately
or
here's
how
you
could
help
your
constituents,
so
they
don't
have
to
call
us
or
there's
some
critical
information
to
you
know
protect
tenants
who
are
being
served.
Eviction
papers
because,
no
matter
what
the
county
or
the
state
says,
landlords
are
evict,
are
serving
tenants
with
eviction
notices.
We
all
know
that,
and
that
is
terrifying
for
some
of
these
people,
so
just
wanted
to
get
my
two
cents
in.
AJ
Real
quick,
so
sarah
just
like
I
had
said
to
kamar
and
I
think
exactly
right,
can
we
just
do
a
better
job
of
advertising?
This,
I
think,
having
people
who
are
overwhelmed
to
think
to
call
311
or
look
through
our
website
for
a
lot
of
materials
doesn't
always
work.
So
you
know
if
we
can
do
something
to
just
make
sure
the
information
gets
out
there
a
little
better.
AJ
M
B
All
right,
any
other
questions
or
comments
on
this
item
all
right
see
seeing
none
city
clerk.
Could
you
please
take
the
role
on
p1,
which
was
for
action?
It's
a
renewal
contract
for
landlord
tenant
services
with
metropolitan
tenants
organization
and
lawyers
committee
for
better
housing
for
october
1st
2020
through
december
31st
2021.
A
M
B
F
F
D
Yes,
thank
you,
mr
mayor,
I'd
like
to
make
an
amendment
to
this
to
remove
714
716
foster
street
from
the
map.
Amendment
second.
B
AM
A
I
called
thank
you
alderman
wilson,
hi
alderman,
rue
simmons.
A
Suffrage
hi
alderman
revel
hi,
alderman
fleming,
I'm
sorry
as
well:
hi
alderman,
fisk,
hi,
alderman,
braithwick,
hi
and
alderman
wynn,
hi.
B
All
right,
the
amendment
to
remove
714
to
716
foster,
passes
the
evanston
city
council
on
a
9-0
vote.
Any
any
further
discussion
on
this
item.
B
AI
For
a
discussion
on
this
item,
we
have
obviously
quite
a
bit
of
work
that
needs
to
be
done
in
the
area
to
address
the
outlet
concerns
of
the
neighbors
and
in
moving
this
forward.
I
want
to
know
just
ottoman.
I
know
you're
paying
very
close
attention
to
this.
D
Okay,
so,
as
I've
mentioned
before
but
happy
to
repeat
again,
this
is
yeah
quick.
D
Fist,
so
what
what
we
see
is
that
we
see
that
the
developers
and
investors
are
not
buying
up
properties
in
the
in
the
r1
zone.
D
I
think
that
what
what's
important
is
to
keep
this
as
simple
as
possible,
and
that
is
that
this
is
not.
This
is
not
about
students
per
se,
it's
about
absentee
landlords
and
the
and
the
problems
that
lack
of
supervision
play
in
the
neighborhood
and
on
the
on
the
residential
neighbors
and
how
that
puts
them
in
the
position
of
pretty
much
having
to
monitor
these
houses
for
violations
and
behavior,
because
there's
no
one
else
in
the
houses
to
do
that.
Now.
D
This
particular
block-
and
I
want
to
be
really
clear-
that
this
block
is
not
a
block.
That's
setting,
policy
or
or
should
be
considered.
I
think
as
a
precedent
setting
a
decision.
This
is
a
block
that
is
trying
to
keep
and
retain
the
residential
nature
of
the
block
and,
as
we've
heard
from
folks
who
have
commented
previously
and
we've
seen
this
in
in
the
firemen's
park,
neighborhood
john
blade
spoke
to
this
tonight,
and
the
folks
on
sherman
have
spoken
to
this.
D
Is
that
once
once
investors
and
absentee
landlords
are
present,
it
makes
it
very
hard
for
folks
to
feel
like
they
would
be
comfortable
investing
in
the
neighborhood.
Some
of
you
may
have
seen
some
of
the
comments
on
the
round
table
where
people
said
I
wouldn't
buy
in
a
neighborhood
next
to
next
to
student.
L
D
It
is-
and
I
want
to-
I
want
to
amend
that
slightly,
because
again,
this
block
is
unique,
because
people
on
the
block
have
rented
a
couple
of
rooms
in
the
attic
to
their
their
to
students.
That's
worked
well
because
those
houses
are,
they
have
live-in
owners.
We
have
a
rooming
house
on
the
block
that
has
been
a
rooming
house
forever.
D
D
This
is
what
the
plan
commission
saw
that
or
interpreted
that
there
was
an
opportunity
for
the
fact
that
conversions
were
subject
to
special
uses.
There
was
an
opportunity
for
the
residents
to
object,
and
this
is
exhausting
to
people
who
have
to
be
on
the
lookout
all
the
time
for,
what's
going
to
happen
to
their
neighborhood
and
those
of
you
who
live
in
r1
zones
right
now.
You
don't
have
to
worry
about
this,
so
this
is.
D
This
is
11
houses,
all
of
which
are
now
single
family
houses
and
there's
no
two
flat.
I
don't
know
where
our
staff
came
up
with
the
fact
or
their
assumption
that
there
was
a
two
flat
there's
no
two
flat
on
the
prop
on
the
on
the
block,
the
removing
of
the
714
16
foster.
It
was
included
just
because
it
was
already
zoned
r4
and
it
seemed
like
a
cleaner
way
to
do
this,
but
clearly
there's
a
way
that
we
can
exclude
that
and
we've
done
that.
D
So
that's
great,
but
you've
heard
what
the
folks
have
said
tonight
and
they
are
pleading
with
you
to
please
give
them
some
help
and
relieve
some
of
this
stress.
That's
on
them
and
we
think
that
rr1
is
a
tool
that
will
help
this,
and
not
only
that,
but
just
right
across
the
street
north
on
orrington
everything
down
orington
is
all
zoned
r1.
D
There
is
absolutely
no
reason
in
the
world
that
this
block
was
ever
zoned,
our
4
or
r4a
or
anything
other
than
r1,
and
I
think
that's
just
a
that's
a
problem
that
has
existed
in
our
zoning
ordinance
for
such
a
long
time.
That
it's
time
to
correct
that,
we
clearly
have
an
instance
in
front
of
us
where
a
condition
with
with
these
investors-
and
it's
again
as
people
have
said-
this
is
not
affordable
housing
by
any
by
any
means.
D
This
is
a
way
to
get
rich
quick
and
it
is
so
disruptive
to
the
neighborhood,
and
I
think
we
really.
We
really
need
to
find
a
way
to
support
people
who
are
facing
such
disruption
as
this
brings
to
them.
So
I
I
really
ask
you
to
support
these
11
11
neighbors,
who
are
have
come
to
you
and
worked
so
hard
on
this
to
present
their
case
to
you.
So
thank.
AI
Thank
you.
So
I
hear
I
hear
you
and
appreciate
everyone's
comments
and
concerns
again.
I
think
I
said
this
before
this.
AI
Zoning
change
request
doesn't
enforce
the
bad
habits
and
property
standard
issues
of
of
of
of
the
area,
so
we
also
have
spent
a
lot
of
time
in
the
city
being
educated
on
racial
equity,
and
I
get
that
this
particular
block
would
not
have
an
immediate
opportunity
for
affordable
housing.
AI
Given
that
two
bedroom
basement
apartments
are
going
for
2100
a
month
in
rent,
but
we
did
just
have
an
extensive
redlining
exhibit
and
residential
zoning
exhibit
from
the
equity,
empowerment,
commission
and
I've
made
a
referral
last
week
that
we
look
at
our
zoning
broadly.
So
it's
difficult
to
support
any
r1
zoning
from
what
we're
learning
about
how
that
has
impacted
and
segregated
our
city
and
disinvested
certain
neighborhoods,
and
how
that's
impacted
our
family
and
informed
our
disparities,
our
racial
disparities.
AI
So
with
that,
I'm
uncomfortable
advancing
any
r1
zoning
and
I
hope
that
the
city
staff
will
come
back
very
soon
with
a
way
that
we
could
look
at
addressing
our
zoning.
But
I
do
want
to
give
staff
direction
that
there
is
some
immediate
remedy,
some
relief
that
is
given
to
the
conditions
that
we're
hearing
about
for
the
residents
on
this
block,
as
well
as
in
the
firemen's
park.
Neighborhood.
AI
A
meeting
with
northwestern
must
happen
quickly,
so
that
we
can
enforce
these
conditions,
and
that's
just
where
I'm
at
so
I'm
hoping
that
we
can
move
forward
with
some
zoning
assessment
city-wide.
Thank
you.
D
Yeah,
I'm
sorry.
I
just
need
to
answer
some
of
that,
because
that's
you
know
we
can.
We
can
move
ahead
with
the
poly
policy
discussion
and
you
know
the
reference
tonight
too
to
the
plan
commission,
but
this
again,
if,
if
you
this
is
going
on
in
in
your
ward,
alderman
resummons,
you
know
mr
blade
spoke
to
that
tonight.
You
know
northwestern
is
not
going
to
come
in
enforce.
They
don't
do
that.
D
They're,
just
they're
they're,
not
helpful
in
this.
This
is
up
to
our
police
department.
Our
staff
to
support
to
enforce
this
does
not
incur
beer.
Pong
does
not
incur
in
the
r1
zone.
We
don't
see
that
anywhere
going
down
origin
avenue,
except
in
this
block
and
in
the
r5
zone.
That's
on
sherman
avenue
this
a
vote
tonight,
for
this
is
a
vote
for
absentee
landlords
and
and
investors.
D
It
is
not
a
vote
on
affordable
housing.
It's
it
is
anti-affordable
housing,
because
it's
putting
in
play
houses
that
are
family
homes
and
putting
them
in
the
hands
of
of
absentee
landlords
and
investors.
This
is
just
the
wrong
thing
to
do.
It's
against
everything
that
I
know
that
all
of
us
stand
for,
and
it
was
happening.
I
mean
it
was
happening
in
your
front
yard.
You'd
recognize
it
and
you'd
say
no
to
it.
D
I
mean
again
if
this
had
been
done
years
ago
in
the
fireman's
park
neighborhood,
it
might
have
been
helpful,
but
it
didn't
happen
if
this
had
happened
years
ago
in
the
21,
20
and
2200
block
of
sherman
avenue
when
with
a
mix
of
housing
from
townhouses
to
two
flats
and
three
flats
and
single-family
homes,
if
that
had
been
possible
when
that
was
100
owner
occupied
and
now
it's
less
than
30
percent
owner-occupied
students.
D
This
isn't
about
students
per
se
because,
as
I
said
before,
this
block
has
students
living
on
it
and
they're
living
happily
on
it.
But
we're
talking
about
houses
that
that
will
be
snatched
up.
Just
like
they've
been
on
sherman
avenue
and
fireman's
park
neighborhood,
they
will
be
snatched
up
by
developers
and
we
will
have
lost
the
affordable
housing.
The
same
way.
We've
lost
the
affordable
housing
in
the
firemen's
park,
neighborhood
and
I
think
you're
thinking
about
this
all
wrong,
and
I
I
I
understand
that
you
have
you
have
your
perspective.
D
D
B
Thank
you,
ultraman
fisk,
any
other
discussion
on
this
item.
Alderman
suffered
him.
AL
Yeah
other
infested,
I
really
admire
your
advocacy
on
behalf
of
your
constituents,
but
I
do
have
a
question:
why
do
we
tolerate
northwestern's
position
that
they
can't
control
their
students
behavior
off
campus?
What's
the
history
there,
because.
V
AL
I
was
like
I
was
just
gonna
say
I
mean
this
is
a
pretty
big
policy
tool
that
cities
have
in
terms
of
zoning
and
I
think,
as
a
city,
we
want
to
move
away
from
our
one,
and
I
I
have
heard
what
the
neighbors
said
and
I
understand
it.
But
why
do
we
tolerate
northwestern's
hands-off
attitude
about
the
behavior
of
their
students
in
our
community.
D
I
think
what
you
can
do
is
you:
can
you
can
ask
the
law
department,
I
mean
when
students
come
out
and
they're
renting
what
they're
renting
apartments
in
evanston
they're
evanston
residents?
D
They
are
our
responsibility
when,
for
example,
the
university
decided
not
to
allow
alcohol
on
campus
any
longer.
The
problems
with
alcohol
came
off
campus
and
we
enforced
and
it's
the
same
way
with
behavior
now
this
is
this.
Is
this?
Is
the
city
of
evanston's
responsibility?
It's
not
northwesterns.
AL
But
this
may
be
a
question
for
our
law
department.
This
may
be
a
question
for
northwestern's
administration,
but
they
have
the
ability
to
sanction
their
students
in
their
university
discipline
code
rather
than
having
it
be
a
responsible,
our
police
department
and
our
residents
to
police
their
behavior.
Is
that
correct?
I
mean
if
you
look
at
other
universities
that
have
codes
of
conduct
they
apply
on
and
off
campus,
because
northwestern
show
no
interest
in
doing.
D
I
I
think,
that's
something
that
you
have
to
ask
ask
our
law
department
and
it's
probably.
D
I
I
want
to
kind
of
bring
you
back
to
the
real
question
here,
and
that
is
the
question
of
investors
and
absentee
landlords,
but
I
I
mean
I
hear
you
and
it
would
be
wonderful
if
the
northwestern
police
and
actually
this
occurs
more
in
the
fireman's
park.
Neighborhood
I
mean
if
john
blades
were
still
on
here.
He
could
probably
come
on
and
give
you
some
information
about.
The
northwestern
police
and
their
lack
of
enforcement.
D
Now
northwestern
did
go
around
with
dave
davis
and
knock
on
doors
and
ask
and
ask
the
northwestern
students
to
wear
masks,
but
most
students
were
home
during
the
day
when
they
came
by,
I
mean
that's
the
kind
of
community
outreach
that
they
do,
but
they're
they're,
not
there
they're,
not
there.
When
more
instances
arise.
I
mean
it's
just
it's
just
not
this
again.
I
this
this
behavior.
D
M
Well,
I
can
tell
you
that
during
during
my
service
on
the
council-
and
it
was
not
that
many
years
ago,
that
northwestern
had
a
student
handbook
that
warned
students
not
to
live
south
of
dempster,
because
it
was
too
dangerous-
and
you
know
I
mean
I-
I've
always
thought
that
was
very,
very
interesting.
B

Yes,

The
vote
was
five
passing.
It
excuse
me
four
for
passing
it
five
voted
not
to
pass
it
so
item
p4
fails
to
pass
all
right.
We're
now
gonna
move
to
item
p5
alderman
wayne.
Could
you
move
that.
F
Yes,
item
p5
is
ordinance
860
amending
title
vi
of
the
evanston
city
code
to
create
accessory
dwelling
unit
regulations
and
to
revive
revise
the
calculation
of
building
lot
coverage.
The
planned
commission
and
staff
recommend
the
adoption
of
this
ordinance,
a
text
amendment
to
the
zoning
ordinance
to
create
accessory
dwelling
unit
regulations
and
to
revise
the
calculation
of
building
lot
coverage.
I
move
approval.
T
Thank
you,
mr
mayor.
I
asked
to
have
this
removed
from
the
consent
agenda
because
I
need
to
abstain
from
voting
on
this
item
because
I'm
a
member
of
the
evanston
development
cooperative.
T
It's
a
local
firm
that
is
focused
on
building
auxiliary
dwelling
units
and
therefore
stands
to
benefit
from
passage
of
this
ordinance,
and
I
need
to
just
say
that
I
did
vote
on
it
in
planning
and
development
two
weeks
ago,
because
I've
been
focusing
on
sort
of
the
broader
impact
of
the
ordinance
because
it's
going
to
be
allowing
attached
and
interior
adus
and
therefore
encouraging
lots
more
homeowners
and
contractors
to
get
involved
in
creating
more
adus
in
our
community.
T

Okay,
thank
you.

you,

you.

pushing
and
working
hard
on
this

this

along
with
everybody
else,
so
we're
now
going
to
move
to
call
of

we'll
start
with
alderman

tonight
no
report
aldermen

Thank
you.
Everyone,
fifth

friends
join
us
for
national
night
out
on
the
sixth

will
be
at

including
our
own
soul
and
smoke,
or
smoke

but
their
barbecue
restaurant.
AI
Please
do
come
for
that
and
we'll
have
a
history
hunt,
something
like
a
scavenger
hunt,
but
a
lot
cooler
and
we'll
go
all
around
the
fifth
ward,
finding
some
some
good
history
facts.
We
will
also
have
our
not
our
prayer,
vigil
our
candlelight
vigil
in
honor
of
our
neighbors
that
have
been
lost
to
violent
crimes
over
the
years
that
will
be
led
by
evans
and
own.
It
and
pastor.
AI
Cherry
all
are
welcome,
I'd
like
to
make
a
referral
to
staff,
and
I'm
assuming
this
would
be
to
economic
development
that
we
hire
a
consultant,
a
tif
consultant
specifically
to
look
at
possibly
re-tiffing
our
west
end
tiff,
and
I'm
hoping
that
we
actually
move
forward
with
this,
because
I've
definitely
brought
this
up
before.
AI
There
is
an
opportunity
for
us
to
add
in
properties
that
could
be
supported
by
tiff,
and
I'm
hoping
we
could
do
that
very
soon,
and
I
have
one
more
thing:
oh
to
the
northwestern
evanston
city
council,
meeting
or
committee.
If
we
could
have
on
an
agenda
some
real
remedy,
some
real
solutions
on
how
we
can
address
the
concerns
of
the
neighbors
in
the
firemen's
park
area,
as
well
as
those
that
came
to
this
meeting
today.
AI
They
have
asked
that
president
shapiro
be
at
a
meeting,
and
so
I
would
like
to
request
that
he
is
invited
and
present
at
a
future
meeting
to
discuss
the
concerns
of
the
neighbors
and
how
we
might
address
these
concerns
moving
forward
because
the
neighbors
are
exhausted,
and
I
appreciate
that
so.
Please
have
that
on
a
future
agenda
and
that's
it.
Thank
you.
AL
First
would
like
to
echo
what
all
the
news
just
said.
I
think
over
saturday,
with
the
amount
of
neighbors
who
came
and
had
an
issue,
I
think
it's
obvious
that
we
need
to
change.
Our
approach
to
northwestern
zoning
may
not
be
the
right
tool
to
solve
their
problem.
Their
problem
is
real
and
it's
something
that
we
have
a
responsibility
to
address.
So
thank
you
all.
There's
students
for
bringing
that
up
and
thank
you
albert
fisk,
for
your
advocacy
on
behalf
of
your
constituents.
AL
Also
october
15th.
There
will
be
a
six
board
meeting
to
discuss
the
budget
which
will
be
public
at
that
point.
B
M
Alderman
rainey.
Thank
you,
mr
mayor.
Just
keep
your
eyes
out
if
you
live
in
the
eighth
ward,
we're
going
to
be
having
a
meeting
in
the
next
week
regarding
the
beginning
of
the
construction
project
on
howard
street
999
to
1015
howard,
the
dairy
queen
site
other
than
that
no
further
report.
AJ
Yeah,
I
just
want
to
continue
this
condolences
to
the
muniz
family,
who
has
to
lay
their
son
to
rest
this
week
and
then
also
just
an
encouragement
to
our
team
of
staff
again
that
we
can
just
be
really
thinking
about
how
we
can
be
working
with
our
youth,
who
are
maybe
online,
maybe
not
online,
with
our
outreach
team.
Also,
I
made
a
female
referral
but
want
to
make
sure
it's
on
the
record
referral
to
pnd
the
notices
that
go
out
from
community
development.
AJ
A
variety
of
them
only
go
to
property
owners,
and
I
would
like
to
have
a
conversation
about
including
the
renters,
because
they
might
have
an
opinion
in
terms
of
what
is
being
proposed
to
properties
they
live
near,
but
they
won't
have
those
notices
because
they
are
not
the
homeowner.
So
if
we
can
have
that
on
agenda,
that
would
be
great
all
right.
B
Thank
you,
alderman
alderman
fisk,
it's
not
with
us
alderman
braithwaite.
AF
S
Hold
the
membrane
a
second.
Thank
you
just
thank
you
all
for
the
support
on
the
black
lives
matter.
I'm
looking
forward
next
week
to
bring
back
the
historic
naming
of
the
harvard
payne
park.
Also
next
week,
we'll
be
hosting
national
up
night
out.
Typically,
we
do
movies
in
the
park
this
year.
We're
gonna
have
a
change
of
venue.
S
We
typically
host
it
at
penny
park,
but
just
due
to
social
distancing,
the
event
will
be
hosted
at
mason
park,
where
we'll
also
have
an
opportunity
for
second
ward
residents
to
meet
our
new
pst
officer.
Other
brooks
who's
been
with
our
force
for
many
many
years
as
well,
we'll
celebrate
officer
reggie
here
who
will
be
retiring
this
year.
Thank
you.
F
Yes,
thank
you.
I
was
going
to
say
no
report,
but
I
have
to
say
that
to
the
residents
on
the
1900
block
of
orrington.
I
am
sorry
we
let
you
down.
We
have
just
allowed
your
block
now
to
be
become
purchased
by
predatory
landlords
and
you
put
up
a
good
fight
and
I'm
sorry
that
we
were
not
able
to
listen
to
you
and
to
support
you
and
I
I
now
you
will
have
to
stay
vigilant
against
every
single
special
use
application
that
comes
in,
and
I
know
how
difficult
that
is.
C
Thanks,
I
did
forget
to
mention
that
we
do
have
the
ribbon
cutting
and
dedication
for
robert
crown
on
saturday
october
3rd
at
10
a.m.
That's
going
to
be
on
field
2
outside
respecting
the
social
distancing
and,
of
course,
with
our
map.
On
with
that,
I
would
like
to
move
pursuant
to
five
illinois
compile
statutes,
ilcs
120
2a.
Let
the
city
council
convene
into
executive
session
to
discuss
an
agenda
item
regarding
personnel.
C
B
AJ
B
All
right,
city
clerk,
could
you
please
take
the
role
to
recess
into
executive
session.
